When reading the history of history, we will see such a veteran general, his name is called Lianpo, is a very powerful general in the past, and why he is mentioned, it is related to a poem, but also let the later generals sigh the twilight years were despised by the world's main examples, Xiaobian feels that that the poem should be very familiar to everyone. However, during the Sino-Vietnamese War in China, there was a veteran general in his seventies who took on the heavy responsibility of attacking, not only leading the army, but also commanding the soldiers to victory.
This can't help but raise a question, that is, why is this veteran general qualified to be recognized and trusted by the state in his seventies, and has the ability to lead the army to go out? In fact, the reason is not difficult to find, and it has a very big relationship with the old general himself. The veteran general, named Xu Shiyou, held several high positions after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and happened to be the commander of the Guangzhou Military Region at that time. That is to say, compared with other generals, he in Guangzhou will know more about the Vietnamese terrain near Guangzhou than others, and he is more accustomed to the customs and customs there.
It can even be said that based on the strategy of knowing oneself and knowing the other, he also has a more advantageous advantage than others, after all, he has been in Guangzhou for a long time, how can he not know anything about his neighbors? And this is the first reason for sending him. Moreover, although the old general was over seventy years old at the time, his physical fitness was very good, no worse than that of young people. In addition, he had contacts and friendships with many generals at that time, especially during the war, and personally invited many colleagues to participate in the war, giving full play to each person's strengths and bringing favorable conditions to the war.
Although this point is not important on the surface, you must know that how to lead the war, in fact, everyone has their own characteristics, if you can skillfully integrate these characteristics, it will form a very powerful plan, and General Xu Lao took advantage of this to help our country win the final victory. In addition, there are two key points. One was that at that time, our country had not been exposed to a formal war for a long time, so in order to ensure victory, the leaders decided to use the bull knife to kill chickens, and General Xu Lao was the only candidate who could go out of the generals who were still alive at that time.
Coupled with the fact that General Xu Lao's own reputation was very high, which had a positive effect on the international public opinion and pressure at that time, and he was enough to deter the soldiers, it was indeed a very wise decision to send him to lead his soldiers to the border and cooperate with another general to counterattack. Of course, The old general Xu also did not live up to the high expectations of the masses and the leaders, and won victories for us with outstanding ability, repelled the enemies who harassed the border fiercely, and restored the stable life of the people.
